There will also be 283 representatives of students' organizations, and 275 delegations fro Jewish communities across the 50 states.

Arutz Sheva will provide live coverage of the conference and speeches.

During the three-day conference, Israeli and American leaders will speak, and thousands will be meetings and discussions, and encourage Congress to support legislation that will improve US-Israel relations.

American speakers will include Vice President Mike Pence, US Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley, US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman, United States Agency for International Development Administrator Mark Green, and the State Department's Policy Planning head.

In the past two years, Netanyahu has refrained from attending the conference, instead choosing to speak via live video from his Jerusalem office. However, he will attend the conference this year, and is scheduled to meet with US President Donald Trump during the same trip.
